and if you already played some time with your team and know where they like the ball you can try some special hits that are signaled with the setters hands before receiving the opponents service.
as some examples:
- short ball to middle player behind the setter
- famous double (consists of setting the ball above the middle player. his fake jump gives the opposite player who came running to the middle a completly free net)
- pipe (set the ball for the attacker through position 6, has to be played rather fast to avoid the middle blocker)
- short ball to position 4 (very useful if not overused...set the ball between 3 and 4, and ur outside hitter runs straight for it so he got no blocker in his way)
